"I am so sorry for your loss. Doris was a wonderful lady and I have such fond memories of her saying things to lift everyone's spirit and give us a moment of laughter and making fresh salsa that we ate throughout the day. The cheesecake recipe she gave me and the wonderful tenderloins she made. A great cook and a wonderful person. I feel blessed to have gotten the opportunity to know her just a little. Condolences to the family."
